Container houses, as a new type of building, are increasingly widely used. Due to their affordability, ease of use, and quick assembly, they are in high demand as dormitories for migrant workers, in outdoor construction projects, and in everyday living spaces. With proper protection and maintenance, the lifespan of container houses can be greatly extended. So, can people live in these container houses long-term?

II. Are there any health risks associated with living in a shipping container for an extended period? 

Many people worry that the paint and materials used on the container walls might be harmful. However, this is not the case. The paint is applied to the exterior, and there is virtually no odor inside. As long as you ensure regular ventilation, keep doors and windows open, and maintain a clean environment, there is almost no impact on health. Therefore, you can live there with peace of mind. If it were harmful, there wouldn't be so many shipping container manufacturers, and its uses wouldn't be so widespread. For example, we now have shipping container hotels, shipping container villas, etc.
